Enovis Accelerates Order Processing and Increases Accuracy with Notable Systems’ AI-Powered Automation
Introduction
Enovis is a global leader in orthopedic equipment, processing 1.3 million orders annually across hospitals, clinics, and physician offices.
- Prior to automation, Enovis relied on manual, error-prone processes that delayed insurance pre-authorization and led to lost revenue.
- By adopting Notable Systems, Enovis has eliminated manual data entry inefficiencies, reduced errors, and accelerated order processing.
- Two key business lines benefit from Notable’s AI-driven automation:
- CMF Bone Growth Stimulators (Regen)
- Bracing & Support (BAS)
The Problem
Manual Processing Delays and Lost Revenue
CMF Bone Growth Stimulators (Regen)
- Slow and error-prone manual data entry delayed pre-authorization and reimbursement.
- Orders took multiple days for processing, increasing the risk of claim denials and revenue loss.
- Offshore data entry introduced accuracy issues, leading to lost orders and sales rep frustration.
Bracing & Support (BAS)
- Enovis processed 90,000 BAS orders per year, relying on manual document review for insurance qualification and medical necessity validation.
- Multi-channel submissions (fax, email, PDFs) required extensive human verification and routing, slowing approvals.
The Solution
AI-Powered Order Processing & Validation
Notable’s Automated Approach
- Hybrid AI-Human System combines:
- AI-based data extraction
- Human "puzzle solvers" for complex cases
- Real-time validation of medical and insurance rules
- Seamless Integration with Enovis’ OnBase System & Salesforce enables real-time updates for sales teams.
- High-speed document processing for both Regen & BAS, returning:
- PDFs with extracted data
- Error/omission reports
- Medical necessity validation summaries
Order Qualification for BAS
- Keyword indexing enables low-cost, automated order completeness validation before submission.
- Reduces time spent chasing missing information, ensuring faster approvals and fewer denials.
Results: Speed, Accuracy & Revenue Impact
- Notable processes Regen orders 7.2 minutes on average, well below the 15-minute SLA.
- Pre-authorization processing time reduced from multiple days to same-day approvals.
- Error-free claims are reimbursed faster, reducing lost revenue.
- Increased automation led to fewer manual interventions, saving Enovis $20M annually.
Future Outlook: Full AI-Driven Payor Decision Prediction
- Notable’s Payor Greenlight System is being implemented to fully automate medical criteria review.
- AI will predict payor decision-making, eliminating manual pre-authorization intervention.
- Ongoing advancements in AI and machine learning will continue to:
- Decrease turnaround time
- Increase accuracy
- Further reduce reliance on human-in-the-loop validation
Conclusion: The Future of AI-Powered Healthcare Automation
- Notable Systems has transformed Enovis' order processing, increasing revenue, reducing delays, and improving accuracy.
- AI-driven automation is the future of healthcare document processing, ensuring faster approvals, higher compliance, and better patient care.
- Next step: Full automation of medical necessity validation and payor approvals.
